the faa had people on air traffic controllers. did you know the faa will spend $500 million on consultants this year? 325 million on supplies and travel? 470 million on grants. to make communities more livable and stable. why not divert some of it to air traffic controllers so we can avoid delays. you can't do that, the president doesn't have the flexibility to shift spending away from services. now, the cuts must be across the board. so why did president obama threatened to veto a republican bill that specifically gave him flexibility? why did he reject the opportunity to emplo and void inflicting pain? he wants air travelers to blame republicans. as you sit on the tarmac, you're being urged to write to congress. administration is using the heavily regulated airlines to channel your anger. it hurts them, so blame the republicans, not me. i don't think it is going to work. we can see through this ploy and don't we deserve better management than this? i'm going to try to remember the last time a president deliberately hurt the pres

the faa has negotiated in bad faith with the faa employees, the airlines, flying public, and the congress. the administration has played shameful politics with sequestration at the cost of hard-working american families. as i have often said, this is no way to run a government. the congress is stepping in to correct the problems, created by the administration's inaction. we are taking this step because of the mismanagement of this important function for the safety of all americans who fly and on behalf of the commerce that depends on a reliable air system. we are taking this action to end the administration's political games that are threatening our passengers' rights and safety. the fact that we are here today trying to solve this problem is a result of the sequester. i remind you the president brought the sequester to the table. in an effort to avoid the arbitrary $1.2 trillion of cuts mandated by the budget control act, twice the majority in this house have passed legislation that would have replaced the sequestration with targeted spending cuts of an equal dollar amount. the senate ha
